EYFS STEAM Sessions School Workshops

We believe in turning tiny hands and curious minds into tomorrow’s STEM Heroes

Our award-winning sessions are designed and led by early years specialists, research-backed and tailored to the 3 - 5 years age group. You can opt for online sessions on your choice of topic to lead in your own setting. Or with our in-person workshops, we can come to you regularly or as a one-off, at a time that suits you. Our self-led sessions are designed to keep your prep time low. We use resources you'll have available in your setting, and we'll give your staff clear guidance on how to help. If we come in person, we'll do everything! Impress your parents with Parent Information sheets, printable Display Materials, a STEAM logo for your website and even Learning Journals and certificates to send home!

Little STEAMers Sessions

In our on-demand and in-person sessions, we introduce scientific ideas to children through stories, movement, singing and demonstrations. 

 

With age-appropriate activities that are easy to set up, children then engage in hands-on exploration and play, to help cement the ideas they've just learnt about. 

 

Every in-person session lasts 45-60 minutes, led by a qualified and experienced teacher and includes:

  • A sensory warm-up

  • mystery bag to introduce the theme

  • story on the theme of the session

  • movement warm-up or game

  • Our Little STEAMers song

  • Three hands-on STEAM activities

  • Extra Resources:

    • Observation sheets and Learning Journals​

    • Printable display materials

    • Parent Information sheets

 

Every on-demand session comes with:

  • A 30-minute interactive video lesson

  • An easy-to-follow guide to setting up and facilitating the activities

  • Bonus content, such as learning goals, worksheets, colouring extensions, questions and extra ideas to try

  • Observation sheets and Learning Journals linked to EYFS learning

  • Printable display materials to bring STEM ideas to life in your setting

  • Printable certificates for children to celebrate their learning

PLUS, when you buy a whole term of Little STEAMers you get:

  • A staff training video to get all your teachers on board with STEAM.

  • A personalised well-done video so children and parents can celebrate their achievements!

  • STEAM logo to display on your website and marketing materials for parents

  • 50% discount code your parents can use when they join Little STEAMers from home

 

Our CPD training can be delivered in person as part of a twilight session or on an INSET day.

Alternatively, use our pre-recorded self-led CPD session to run your training affordably and flexibly on your own schedule.

Testimonials

We booked Inventors & Makers after a great experience last year. Having you in school was a fantastic experience - booking and communication in advance as well as on the days themselves. My Reception class are super excited about being scientists and making potions just like Laura! All the classes from Nursery to Year 6 were extremely impressed, learnt a lot and had a great time!

Miss Rimmer, Class Teacher

Laura is a fantastic teacher. She has a wonderful ability to engage young children in science and engineering in her classes. My 6 year old daughter has loved attending her sessions and comes back full of ideas and excitement each week. Highly recommend for all.

ML, Parent
